I created this for the Blogger Group #3, challenge #3, it is a sketch challenge. I used my Sweet n Sassy Stamp, it is called For You Snowman. Head over the SNSS and check out the great year end sale. I added dazzling diamonds to his body and colored the rest of him with copics. I added bling for random snowflakes, scalloped the bottom, added baja ribbon, and a sentiment tag. I hope you like him and don't forget to vote on the card you think is the best. I will post the details of that as soon as I have them. Enjoy your New Year, stay safe, and give somebody a hug!

SNSS is having a farewell blog hop to the super talented ladies that are leaving SNSS. They are also having a warm welcome to the new DT and the guest DT. Korin is also introducing new stamps and chances to win lots of goodies. Head over to SNSSto find out how to win and show some luv to those coming and going! Enjoy the hop!

I created this card for todays SC209, I need some thank you cards for Christmas. I used SU upsy daisy and rock and rolled it in riding hood red and river rock. I then covered the flowers with crystal effects to give them some shine, I am not sure if you can see it in the photo, but they are really shiny. I added the riding hood red ribbon, I think by now you know I luv the riding hood red color, it is one of my favorites! I added American Crafts cranberry brads that match the riding hood red perfectly. Several of American Craft brads match SU colors very nicely. I stamped the Verve seniment and punched it out with the circle punches. The dp is KaiserCraft. I hope you enjoy visit and my cards today!

I created this card for the Dirty Dozen Sketch DSKETCH1208 and for the Dirty Dozen Central Theme CT1208to pick a lesser known holiday. I chose National Hugging Day, it is January 21...remember to hug someone or two on that day. I used my Stampendous Chanitogo's Love Balloon stamp, I think it is perfect for the Hugging Day. I used riding hood red, pink pirouette, white, and basicgrey dp. I colored the monkeys with SU markers, paper pierced the balloon, and sponged around the monkeys and the edges. I stamped HUG somebody today as the sentiment and punched it out with the circle and scalloped punches. I also faux stitched around the outside edges. It would be great for Valentines day too....I hope you like it! Enjoy

I created this for Julee's Mondays Mojo67, I turned mine to fit theVerve Black Tie Birdies . They are so adorable. It also fits HCE09 to use tags and HCE10 to alter an embellie, I added dazzling diamonds to the vanilla hph. I sponged around the top panel and the "sweet" sentiment. The ribbon came from Michaels but matches close to cocoa perfectly. Check out the Mojo Monday challenge and play along, enjoy your visit!

Back to Barbara and her gallery, you gotta go check it out, it is full of the sweetest little gifts....I luv some of her ideas! She had these cute little treat bags in her gallery and I knew I wanted to make them along with some of the other great gift ideas. I used the nestie one label dies to make the tops of the gift bags, I also used the stamp set called Holiday Collection from the Country Living Set. I filled the little bags with Hershey Kisses, they are near and dear to my heart...wink! For those of you who don't know I package Kisses in my day job! This adorable little treat bag also fits this weeks OCCC to use something clear on your card or project. I encourage you to play along, if you visit Barbara's blog you will see that you need to keep your eye out for $1 items at our favorite dollar spots Target, Big Lots and the Dollar Tree.

I created this card for the Whimsy DTcall, you are to use Whimsy stamps if you have them. If not, use an animal stamp with at least three layers and three embellies. I used Riley, I do not have any Whimsy; but they are so adorable I will have to get some. I used the Mojo66 for the layout, it is a great layout. I used dp from Basicgrey, the colors are always artichoke, riding hood red, and white. I popped the sentiment up and layered it to give it depth. Enjoy your winter!

I created this for todays WT198 and for the extra holiday challenge HCE06. The holiday challenge was to make a one layer card, I wanted so badly to reach for all the toppings....hehehe...if you know what I mean. I kept to the rules and I am very pleased with the turn out. I will give this to dh, I know it has flowers but he always luvs the cards I give him....he is my biggest fan! Enjoy your evening!

I created this card for three challegnes, check them out and play along. Todays CC198 , to use so safron, cameo coral, and orchid opulence...I must say I was toatlly afraid of these colors. i do not have the bold brights they are my least favorite colors; I used lavander lace instead. This is also the extra holiday challenge from SCS HCE04 to make a birthday card, use three punches, 1 piece of dp, 2 colors plus a neutral, and ribbon as the only embellie. This is also fits Julee's Mojo Monday sketch Mojo66, I used my Verve ballon stamp......this set is so adorable. I used a 8" instead of the 11" long sheet of cs to fold in half. It makes a regular size card when you add the top note die cut out like I did here. Enjoy your evening, I will be adding a few personal photos during the Christmas season.

Oh my....I am soo excited about these little "scraplings". They are so fun to make and so very clever, I have so many ideas running around in my head. I get very excited about the smallest of things, so no doubt I am totally excited about these. I thought they would be great to set at each place setting for Christmas this year, I am off to make everyone a "scrapling". I can hear it now, "What did you get for Christmas?" response, "a scrapling" , " a what?" hehehehe.

Super simple to make they are 1.25" x 8.50" piece of cs, finished size is 1.25" x 4.25". You can learn more about these here HCE03. I also done todays SCS challenge to do Faux Silk with a pop, you can learn about that here TLC200. It was made with mainly scraps, enjoy this fun little project.

I created this for todays FS98, Paula. If you have not seen her coloring you must check it out...so awesome! I kept everything, but changed the stamps, colors and used paper piercing rather than stitching. I luv this little sketch, I used some great textured watercolor paper that is ivory in color. It was gave to me by a friend....thanks R! I lightly sponged the sides with mellow moss, I used riding hood red on the tag sentiment. I used hemp twine and large pop dots to give it depth. These colors are awesome together; mellow moss, riding hood red, and the ivory. Enjoy your visit and come back often!

I aslo stamped snowflakes on the inside of the card, making it extra special. I can't seem to make enough Christmas cards this year. I think I should start in January on next years cards...lol. Enjoy your weekend and come back to visit.....I luv company!

I created this card for todays IC159, there is some very interesting pieces of art on this site, check it out and play along.

I was inspired by this pillow, but I changed the colors to make it a little brighter, kiwi kiss is definitely bright. I used Mojo65 sketch. I ran the piece of riding hood red through the CB with the houndstooth embossing folder, I really like the great texture the houndstooth gives cs. I ran the main panel through the CB with the label 1 nesties and sponged the edges with kiwi kiss, added kiwi kiss ribbon, and the sentiment. The trees are different companys, I can't remember where I got them. I have several more cards to make for Christmas, I received two big orders this past week. Enjoy your visit and come back often. I will be adding some personal photos in the next week and through Christmas.

I created this card for todays FS97 over at SCS. I used the same airplane theme that America did, but I added snowflakes to Rileys scene....hehehehe...can you tell I want some snow..alot of snow! I stamped snowflakes on the baja breeze dp, then added a piece of riding hood red, colored Riley and paper pierced his Merry Christmas to make it pop. I added SU snowflakes flurries with gemstone brads in the center. The card base is black so I added a piece of baja breeze with snowflakes and a strip of ribbon to the inside. Enjoy your visit, I hope you come back often.

I was drawn to the open hand, the five fingers, and the word silver. This huge tree stamp is by Hero Arts its called Design Block Tree. I used black, white, and basic gray as my colors. There are five layers including the basicgrey ribbon. I paper pierced around the outside of the black and gray layers. I sponged the sentiment and the spotlighting part of the tree.

I created this for todays FS96 Anna over at the SCS site. You gotta check out her work...sooo awesome. She does some beautiful silhouttes, using a brayer. I do not have a brayer and always figured I wouldnt need it...I think I need it after gazing her gallery. I cased a more simple card, well, beacuse believe or not I still need Christmas cards. These stamps are from Imaginisce, they are so cute. I used kraft, SU dp, ribbon from Michael's and added brads on circle dots. I really luv using kraft, you ccan do so much with it. Thank you for visiting, I enjoy reading your thoughts! Have a wonderful evening.

I used K & Company dp, black, and white cardstock. I used SU felt flurry snowflakes with diamond brads in the center. I punched the bottom with the SU scalloped punch, I then put Hero Arts diamond bling in the center of each scallop. I stamped the sentiment and punched it out with the curly label punch and the added balck ribbon. Thanks for visiting....enjoy your day!

Here is a closer look at the gift tag...the curly punch tag is just added to the back with the ribbon between the two layers.

Well, I had one of those WOW moments last night. I was putting together a card and discovered that the SU curly punch when added to the circle nesties looks like a Christmas ornament. How fun is that....they are super easy to make. You can make all styles and colors, to match with your Christmas paper or gift bags. I have been wanting to discover different ways to use punches, they have so many uses. I am happy with the way these turned out. Thanks for visiting and enjoy making your gift tags!

I ordered this from my demo, Country Living has paired up with Stampin Up and put together this awesome set. It has chipboard, patteren cardstock, a six piece stamp set, dazzling diamonds, tombow glue, silver cord, three ink spots, crystal brads,white ribbon,and pop dots. This is really great value for the money, only $49.95. I am really pleased with the collection and I luv the stamp set that is included! Contact your demo to order yours today. The link to the SU website to see it is here Stampin Kit Holiday Collection

I created this fancy envelope and card for todasy SCS challenge WT195. the challenge was to use an envelope in some way with your creation. I do not have any templates for envies, so I added ribbon and embellies to a regular size envie. Super simple card using the Verve snowman stamp and sentiment form rubbernecker. I added the wide baja breeze ribbon and dazzling diamonds to the snowmans little hat. Thanks for the visit and enjoy your day!

I created this card for todays sketch SC205, I really like it. It will make awesome quick Christmas cards. I used K & Compnay Christmas Cheer dp....this stuff is fabulous. The colors are rich and bold. I then added the SU felt flurry snowflakes, they really match wonderfully. I wanted to use the big Hero Arts blings in the center of my snowflakes. I didn't have big ones in black, so I took a black sharpie and colored them. I then wanted them to sparkle so I added dazzling diamonds.....instant glitter and glitz! I really wanted to add my glittery mittens from yesterday....I know you are probally over them, but not me....I just luv em! I will be making a card with the little shimmery mittens in the corner, I can't resist. I hope you enjoy your day, it is back to work for me tomorrow; I have enjoyed so much being home and playing early in the morning. Let me know if you think I should post the little mitten card...o.k.?

Tuesday, December 2, 2008

I had to make one of the little gift card boxes with the dazzling daimonds mittens. The instructions for making the little boxes can be found in last months posts. Enjoy!

I created this card for todays CC195, to use sahara sand, black, and vanilla. I luv these colors together, try them for yourself. I used these mittens from Rubbernecker, I colored them with black and jazzed them up with dazzling diamonds...so very cute. I would like to have a pair IRL...hehehe. The sentiment is Inkadinkado, I added some black bling to the flourishes. Everything else is basic layering. Enjoy your visit.

I created this card for four different challenges. I used todays TLC197, to used simple green spritzed on your card, I used alcohol instead. TECC44, Taylors sketch; ssnotime63 Sharon's challenge to make a thank-you card; OCCC to make a card with snowflakes or snowmen. I was determined to play today, but when I saw the challenge I was like "oh no". I have no glossy paper or simple green. I wanted to use kraft paper with bravo burgandy and the wasabi, so I spritzed the kraft with alcohol....I wounld't try this at home..lol...just kidding. It is not the best way to do this technique, but I think it turned out o.k. Using glossy paper would be much better. The sentiment is from Verve and the dp is K & Company. I hope you come back and visit, but most of all.......enjoy your day!

I created this card for todays FS95 Dawn, she has an amazing gallery. Head over to SCS and check it out and play along. You case (copy and share everything) one of Dawn's cards and change at least two things. I kept the same lay-out, I changed the image, the colors, and I added the sentiment. I used real red, soft sky, and white, I used Riley sking from Hanna stamps, I colored him with SU markers and copics. I used the snowflake cb folder and embossed the top layer, soft sky piece of cs. I used two different kinds of ribbon, Dawn had done this also....I wanted to keep that element, I luv the look. I tore the bottom piece of cs and added dazzling diamonds for snow. I have a very special person in mind for this card. Enjoy your visit and come back often.

Here is the inside of the card, I used the Martha Stewart snowflake punch and added dazzling diamonds to the center.

Saturday, November 29, 2008

I created this card for todas IC156, IC's are my favorite challenge. I chose the adorable

green snowflake wrapping paper, there is some very cool wrapping paper on this site. I used the SU snowflake dp from the Wish Simply Scrappin, this scrappin pack is so awesome.....some adorable die cuts! I used Stampendous Jolly Snowman for the main image. I colored his hat, outlined him with old olive around his round body, colored the heart with real red, and added dazzling daimonds for the snow. I layered him once and cut him out. I used the felt chocolate ribbon, I stamped the sentiment in choclate, it's from Verve. I punched it out with the curly punch. He turned out so very sweet. I hope you enjoy your visit and come back often!

Friday, November 28, 2008

O.K. girls here is my first challenge card to use yellow, orange, and flowers. I believe this fits the criteria. I used my favorite die, the top die. If you don't have this you should give it a try, I luv it! I used the SU Haiku dp, great stuff. I used stamps from Papertrey Ink and sentiment from Verve. I also used the curly punch (it matches the top die, only smaller..hehe). I found the orange checkered ribbon at Michael's it matches the tangerine tango nicely. I added pearl brads to the center of the flowers, attached it all to a old olive card base. I hope you like it, I am very pleased with how it turned out. Enjoy!
